Ingredients For DIY Burrito Bowl:


  • Carne Asada or ground beef (always opt for grass-fed meat whenever possible)
  • Cooked Jasmine rice or brown rice (any rice works perfectly!)
  • Shredded Cheese (I like using Mexican shredded cheese or sharp cheddar cheese for the best flavor
  • Black Beans ( Black beans are full of healthy fiber and help to regulate hormones naturally in the body)
  • Tomatoes or diced tomatoes (Fresh diced tomatoes are best)
  • Salsa (any type of salsa works well in this recipe, red or green salsa as well as Pico De Gallo which is my favorite)
  • Cilantro
  • Fresh lime and lime juice
  • Onion (red or white onion)
  • Radish (radish brings out the other flavors in the burrito bowl and brings a nice spice to this dish)
  • Bell peppers (red, orange, or green bell peppers, or even better, use both)
  • Sour Cream
  • Lettuce (you can use leafy greens, arugula, mixed greens, kale, green leaf lettuce, or Iceberg lettuce, the more lettuce the better! 🙂
These are easy burrito bowls that can be made in less than 15-minutes.

Beef Burrito bowl seasoning:

You can use taco seasoning to season your ground beef or carne asada. I like to make my own since it's lower in sodium and I know exactly what goes into it.


Make easy homemade taco seasoning with paprika, chili powder, ground cumin, garlic powder, and onion powder. Add dried chili flakes if you want your meat spicy!

I love to load my healthy burrito bowls with loads of veggies like fresh bell peppers and fresh tomatoes. I also add tons of lettuce to my burrito bowls. The more veggies, the better.

My favorite rice to use for all cooking is Jasmin rice. Jasmine rice has a lovely nutty taste to it and adds wonderful flavor to any dish. I highly recommend it for burrito bowls. It’s also the same rice that one restaurant uses.

Grab the family, load up my healthy burrito bowls and enjoy an evening in eating really tasty food.
